If you'd rather stay closer to your vacation "home" here on Tusquittee Creek, you can try your luck in the creek for trout or head on over to the pond for some bluegill and maybe even a small bass. And if it's the challenge of fly-fishing you're hoping for, we can direct you to several of the many wild creeks and trout streams here in our little corner of the mountains.
